We need to talk about directors

An improbable sixth season begins with an oblique response to the recent John Eliot Gardiner incident. Singer/opera director Thomas Guthrie joins Nicholas Mulroy and Robert Hollingworth to mull things over. In New York, Nicholas talks to director Aria Umezawa and singer Isaiah T Bell with an alternative view on hierarchy in the rehearsal room. Also featuring a thrilling new mini-series: 'In the car with Martha McLorinan'.TRACK LISTING:Porpora - Come nave in mezzo all'ondeCecilia Bartoli, Il Giardino armonico, Giovanni Antonini Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/choral-chihuahua.

Om Podcasten

Choral Chihuahua is a podcast in which British choral directors chat about things that matter to them: composers they love, points of technique, classic but also niche choral works, other groups and singers they admire. With a light touch, Eamonn Dougan, Robert Hollingworth and now also Nicholas Mulroy chew the choral cud about how (and why) you do it and what they've learnt along the way. Choral Chihuahua is brought to you by I Fagiolini and University of York Music and produced by Polyphonic Films. It's supported through your donations and I Fagiolini Charitable Trust.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/choral-chihuahua. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
